Chapter 1042 Borrowing Faces
These four people had taken their positions and ced Matthew in the middle. With more than a dozen
poisonous insects and a simultaneous attack, it would be impossible to dodge the attack. It went to show
that Crow was prepared, and he nned to kill Matthew right away.
However, when they released their attacks, Matthew didn’t fluster. On the other hand, a nonchnt smirk
appeared on his face. Instead of dodging, he simply ignored the insects.
All of the insectsnded on Matthew, and Crow was delighted because all these poisonous insects
contained different types of highly lethal poisons. More than a dozen of insects together with more than a
dozen types of lethal poison would be enough to make Matthew suffer a horrible death!
Despite that, nothing seemed to befall Matthew, and he raised his hand, casually swatting off a spider
on his shoulder as though he was just brushing off dust.
Stunned, Crow thought, How is this possible? Is Matthew immune to poison?
What they didn’t know was, Matthew was carrying a few pieces of jade pendants with himself, and they
were all carried by Jinny before. These pendants were enough to help him fend off these poisonous
insects.
Crow was rather quick to react when he saw that nothing happened to Matthew. Immediately, he whistled
without hesitation, signaling for his disciples to scatter and escape. As for Crow himself, he grabbed
Charmine from the floor and wanted to escape with her, but Matthew made his move the moment all four
of them turned their backs on him.
In lightning speed, he inserted several silver needles into them and they all suddenly felt that the energy
had been drained from their bodies. They fell to the floor and were unable to move.
Lowering himself, Matthew shot Crow a look from the corner of his eye. “You really think I have no idea
what you guys are up to? So, you nned to attack me sneakily by trapping me in the middle?” He
snorted indifferently and continued, “If I hadn’t let you guys approach me on purpose, would I have been
able to take down all of you like this?”
Earlier when Matthew arrived, Crow and his disciples were spread out in the room. If he had attacked
them and they made their best effort, maybe a couple of them would have escaped. Therefore, he
deliberately allowed them toe closer to himself before he attacked them so that he could take them
down in one fell swoop.
With an ashened face, Crow gritted his teeth and growled, “W-Who are you, really? Why are you immune
to the poisonous insects?”
In reply, Matthew merely smirked without a word and inserted more silver needles into them, sealing
thempletely. After that, he dragged all of them into another room inside and ced them on the
floor. When all of this was done, he called Felix in.
Felix had witnessed everything which happened in the room earlier and was shocked beyond words.
When he saw the insects on the floor, a look of terror shed across his face. “Mr. Larson, so these
people are from the Orleans’ Voodoo n? It’s terrifying! All these insects have lethal poisons which are
impossible to dodge!” he said in a stammer.

Casually, Matthew ced the insects into a porcin bottle and said nonchntly, “Even though it’s hard
to fend them off, there are also rules in Orleans. Usually, they wouldn’t leave Thousand Hills and interact
with the outside world. As long as you don’t make a trip to Orleans, you won’t have a chance to get into
contact with them under normal circumstances.”
Stunned, Felix asked, “So why are these people here?”
“They’re here to look for someone,” Matthew answered.
“Look for someone? Who are they looking for?”
Smirking, Matthew replied, “Something must have happened in Orleans, but this has nothing to do with
you. Sit and wait here for a while. I think Franklin will be here soon.”
Instantly, Felix’s face turned grim and he thought, If Franklines, it goes to show that he’s conspiring
with these Orleanians. So, did Franklin n Donovan’s death?
Entering the room, Matthew scanned Crow and his disciples before finally picking out two of them—each
of them with a simr build as himself and Felix.
After dragging them out, he said with a smirk, “Guys, please do me a favor. I’m borrowing your faces for
a while.”
